C array types are weird. In this article I’ll explain what I find weird about them, what I’d do differently, and ramble on a few related things.

Oh, look! Another pretentious C programmer bemoaning the inevitability of undefined behavior like it's some sort of philosophical revelation. 🙄 We're all just helpless marionettes in the grand theater of programming, swirling in a vortex of #pointers and segfaults! 🤹‍♂️

In this march's edition of the @cppafrica
virtual meetup, I got to speak about #cpp #Iterators and the underlying mechanisms behind them, more of the latter actually.

Welcome to Part 2 of this series, in which we will look at C language’s concept of pointers and structs. Later on in this article, we will use Panama to mimic these concepts. The goal is to call C function signatures that are often defined to accept pointers and structs....

Some years ago, I published this project on computing the #Mandelbrot set #fractal in the C #programming language using #pointers and POSIX #threads.

This project is for the JavaScript- or Python-obsessed, high-flying #IT practitioners. The goal is to introduce to the scripting language aficionados the systems programming concepts, specifically programming in a parallel and hardware-proximate manner, with a focus on mathematical computations. There is a comprehensive README, and the code is also fully commented.
